The leaks (Why now? Who leaked them? Are they on CD? Comparisons to old demos)

[Mr.Intensity]

If I had an unreleased leak, I think I'd only trade it for another unreleased leak....

That Vma Performance was the best of that awards show... but far from Axl's best.

someone on the NIN Echoing The Sound board claims he has catcher in the rye

http://www.echoingthesound.org/phpbbx/viewtopic.php?t=9350&start=100

at the bottom, "mr gibbons"

quite odd, he claims it hasnt been "officially leaked" yet and he is holding back.

[Mr.Intensity]

Well, we've solved the mystery.

Trent Reznor must have worked in the same studios as Axl Rose has for Chinese Democracy. Trent Reznor used his connections to leak the music onto the internet. The music originally was posted at Nin.Com and now Trent is letting us all know he is responsible for starting "Chinese Democracy" by putting that picture up on Nin.Com that has "Chinese Democracy" over the wall.

Wait, how can something be "official", and also be "leaked"? That sounds like a monster oxymoron.

So does Chinese Democracy.

i think whoever is leaking them is the same person who leaked the first irs way back last year

they leak the songs in pieces, because they have a slow internet connection and don't want to clog up there computer for that long. when they released the entire versions of twat and better, they reduced the bitrate so it wouldn't take so long, i remember darkemus or madison saying that whoever they were getting the leaks from had a slow connection.

That makes no sense at all.    Even over dial up we're talking about 10 minutes different between the 2:06 Better and the complete Better.   Or TWAT at 160Kb/s or 192Kb/s.   

That's not the reason at all.   Unless the leaker totally misunderstands it all too.

too funny,


anyway the guy on the board deleted the part about Catcher in the Rye.... this is getting weirder and weirder...

[J?]

Probably the Medley?

I hated that performance.. I wouldn't trade these m+m's I am eating for it.

the rehearsals were probably better...? hard to tell, because some assholes are hoarding it....

Yeah thats bullshit that the rehearsals hasnt been leaked yet, what assholes holding that back.

I assume he means people have it, but it hasn't been widely spread across the internet. "Offically" was probably the wrong word to be used.

Someone brought it up earlier, Axl has been sloppier with these demo's than we ever could have imagined. So who knows what was ripped from DJ booths or where ever else he flashes that thing around.

For the right price I imagine almost any track is obtainable.

[1badapple]

my friend here does dj stuff, and he says his system  can put a cd in and burn it to another cd OR rip it to the laptop he has connected. i'm guessing that's what happened and that's how we got these songs. if that's the case, i'd be willing to bet that there's more out there, we just aren't getting it YET.

[Megaguns]

I say after that mtv report from that new york nightclub that whoever axl sent to the hotel to retrieve the 2 cds threw them into his laptop and copied them before returning. So there is a possibility that there are in fact 20 or so songs out there!

[Buddha_Master]

Axl better drop Chinese Democracy soon...

Aren't you the same guy who claims to have a song called 'Prosperous Chili' but you wont let anyone else hear it?

As for more leaks, that DJ said Axl had 2 cd's both containing 10 songs. So if those CD's fall into someone elses hands were in for leaks galore! I'm surprised no one has any sort of recording from the club.

[Mr.Intensity]

I don't believe he has another gnr track.... if he does he should pm me because I would like to negotiate a deal if he really has an unheard track.

I also am working on verifying the lyrics to "Leave Me Alone", "Prostitute", and "This I love." Two people claim to have linear notes and I got lyrics sent to me from one of them.. Im just trying to get the other guy to send me lyrics to see if they match up.

[Gaymo, the Hobbit]

I've had enough for the leaks. I only want this album to come out, so i can listen to it on repeat until i grow old. There's nothing in this world that i wanna do more, than listening to this album..

[Will]

Well, to anyone looking who has potential tracks that haven't been leaked, I am willing to pay the RIGHT price. Send me a pm if you'd like to negotiate.

How about 15 to 20 bucks for the whole CD with the case and booklet?
Wait for the official release.

I would appreciate it if I don't see anyone talking about paying to get leaks from this album. Other posts mentioning such things will be deleted. Do not pay for this kind of stuff. The album will come out eventually.

So, in all honesty if Joe Blow was to have 2 gnr tracks right now and I could obtain them for $50.00 then leak them to you and the whole board for free... you would object to that? I think anyone who is willing to pay to pry some tracks free should be allowed as long as it is affordable/worth it.. to them.

Just my .02

[Mr.Intensity]

I think legally, it's a terrible idea to pay for them. Plus you're out of pocket.

Legally, its a terrible idea to download them too.

But, I am willing to bet top dollar that 99% of this board has dl'd them and listened to them. To some people $100.00 isn't a lot of money or to some people unreleased gnr tracks are worth $100.00.

i wish cd would be out by march... i cant wait any longer..
